Internally Scaler could output 16 different MIDI signal (1 per channel), when routing the MIDI you have to tell you external instrument to listen to a specific track and channel. Unless you routed the MIDI in a specific fashion, Scaler doesn’t broadcast its MIDI output anywhere. The transformed MIDI signal is output by Scaler on its channel 1 (by design). Scaler receives MIDI from your DAW and can transform it. Hi seems there’s some confusion here about the MIDI routing and what you can do with Scaler. Thanks in advance for any time spent in helping this very confused player! My MIDI Keyboard Controller can trigger either or BOTH the VSTi and Scaler internal sound when the internal Scaler Speaker is turn off!? So, if you do have this working, can you be so kind as to give me a brief outline of what is set to what? I tried that and it does not work for me - so I tried OMNI Channelon both and get the same results (Null). But, still, no joy in getting Scalar to play my instrument VSTi.įrom what I read of your posts, you were able to get Scaler to play your VSTi using MIDI Channel 1 on both your VSTi and Scaler. I did learn some things that helped like being reminded to turn on the MIDI Monitor button and Arm all the Tracks in SONAR. I’ve watched/read over 30 You Tube/Forum reviews and none of them gave a complete solution for SONAR. No matter what I try I can not get any instrument VSTi to sound with the Scalar MIDI output. My question to you was were you able to get your instrument VSTi to sound using the Scaler keyboard and/or Chords on the Progression path. Thank you for the reply Slydyne! Yes I get your frustration.
So Ed1, forgive my ignorance–and as I said I dropped this issue because basically your answers confused me–but why is it set up this way, which is a total PITA? Why must I ALWAYS reserve MIDI channel 1 in my daw for Scaler (if there’s a potential that’d I’d bring Scaler into the session for songwriting help later on, which is how I and probably a lot of other people tend to use it? If I seem agitated, sorry, but yea this has caused me a lot of grief too. What if I have a session going w/ a bunch of vsts from, say, Kontakt all routed to specific MIDI channels including, say, a piano on MIDI channel 1… and lets say I decide to bring Scaler in later on… I would then have to change that Kontakt piano I had comfortably set to MIDI channel 1 and find it another open channel so that Scaler can have channel 1! Wtf? Unless I’m missing something here which is entirely possible, that’s just lame and I STILL do not understand the point of this design. This STILL does not make sense to me and so no this has not been “resolved” and it doesn’t look like it can be, not the way we’re hoping at least.īut why not ask one more time to Ed1, since I’m here:Įd1, why only MIDI channel 1? I don’t like this design at all man. So, Bo, you should be able to do what you want to do ONLY ON MIDI CHANNEL 1, but no other channel. If I understand correctly, basically what Ed1 is saying is this is all normal for Scaler to only function in this way on midi channel 1 and that they left all the other MIDI channels ‘free for something else.’ Yeah that’s what I didn’t get, and I still don’t understand why, NOR do I like this design at all.
SONAR X3 MIDI MONITOR HOW TO
Well w/ all due respect to Ed1 of course, I was still left confused by his answers and felt like I was just beating this thing to death by trying to get to the bottom of the same question you’re asking, which is, with the exception of channel 1, why won’t Scaler communicate/trigger other vst sounds from Scaler’s keys on ANY OTHER channel but channel 1? So no, other than via MIDI channel 1 ONLY, I never did figure how to get Scaler to trigger other vsts from Scaler’s keyboard, and if I understand Ed1 correctly it is not possible to do so.Īs you can see up there I was asking this question to Ed1 and his answers confused to me to where I started to feel ignorant (which I may be lol) so I stopped asking.
